Answer:To find the average rate of change for the interval from x = 5 to x = 6, we need to calculate the change in the function values over that interval and divide it by the change in x.
Given the points (5, 0) and (6, 4), we can calculate the change in the function values:
Change in y = 4 - 0 = 4
Change in x = 6 - 5 = 1
Average rate of change = Change in y / Change in x = 4 / 1 = 4
Therefore, the correct answer is 4. None of the given options (A, B, C, or D) match the correct answer.
